Agent J is sent to find Agent K and restore his memory after the re-appearance of a case from K's past.
Major step down from the first one. They try to reverse the dynamic between Jones and Smith. Jones this time plays the role of the fish out of water and Smith plays the seasoned vet. It’s an interesting idea on paper, but the comedy worked so much better the other way around when K’s deadpan explanations of other worldly phenomena, and J’s over the top reactions to everything he sees. This one leans far too heavily into the CGI weirdness, the slithering but sultry Lara Flynn Boyle 👀, the two headed Knoxville, Giant Subway Worms, etc etc. It was sooo much and most of it didn’t age very well. I don’t really like that they basically unravel the perfect ending for K from the first movie. And I really think a sequel with Smith and Fiorentino as partners would have worked really well. I felt my kids enthusiasm for this franchise dwindle a bit too. We’ll see how quickly part 3 makes it into our movie nights.
